"Final-cut tiebreak goes to the director," the filmmaker said while accepting his movie's third award of the night.

The Brutalist' filmmaker Brady Corbet earned the Golden Globe for best movie directing over nominees Jacques Audiard, Sean Baker, Edward Berger, Coralie Fargeat and Payal Kapadia at the Jan. 5 ceremony hosted by Nikki Glaser in Los Angeles.

The Brutalist took home one of the most prestigious awards of the night at the Golden Globes when it was honored with Best Picture in the Drama category on Sunday night. Filmmaker Brady Corbet, who also won Best Director earlier in the night, took the stage along with the movie’s cast and producers to accept the award.
